Relatively stable around 80k for 2018 and 2019. It appears they have executed a strategy to become a vertically integrated end-to-end logistics company rather than just a container shipping company. Profits during the pandemic allowed them

slides will get noisy due to dust ingestion, even if you're very careful. I thought that phenomenon was primarily due to oxidation. Hmm, maybe get a used 80s mixer and use the hardware as UX for a digital mixer (with some algorithmic
